The scanner can do all resolutions +between 1 and 1200, in increments of 1. + +.TP +.B \-\-preview +Requests a preview scan. The resolution used for that scan is 22 dpi +and the scan area is the maximum allowed. The scan mode is user +selected.

E.g., +a value of 128 requests all debug output to be printed. Smaller levels +reduce verbosity. + + +.SH LIMITATIONS +The windows TWAIN driver has many more options than this SANE +backend.
